If the laundering is contracted out and uniforms go missing then the contractors should be held responsible. These days it is possible to have logos embroidered very cheaply to enable identification of ownership. Surely there are orderlies who can count the laundry in and out just like beauty parlour, or hotel staff do.

It is a simple enough matter. Doctors or surgeons who work in hospitals do not go around town in their medical whites, so why not have the same arrangements for nurses uniforms? In any case all uniforms should be supplied by individual hospitals and not funded by the nurses themselves.

its because we have to!!health systems sre stretched enough without providing laundry services for hospital staff...i agree that it contributes to infection spread and i would love it if my hospital had a washing service as i hate to bring uniforms in to my own home with my baby there but thats the reality of todays health systems and hospital policies

I work as an alternative therapist and never take my uniform home or wear it out in the street. I think it is unhygienic of nurses to wear their uniforms home and back.

Coz they r afraid that others may peep through window or key hole when they change inside hospital.. hi. hii.. hiii...
